	Pete, I will take a case of cases. That will give me a good excuse to build a new rifle to fit them

	No Bob...Thats ONE "cartridge case", one meanial piece of brass, but with the added and very sought after small primer pocket. Once your done shooting this thousands of times...it goes in your cartdridge collection...or you can sell it! Maybe make your $$$ back...maybe....Hope you make Spokane...Pete

I have not heard anything on the subject yet, and am wondering if anyone is still using them and if anyone has them for sale. Thanks! Joe S THEY CAN BE EASILY FOUND. Near the plastic wads. Just left of the Moly coated bullets. Under the frozen barrels.

	RMC reduced capacity cases and "Everlast" are not the same, is that correct? Bob

	In the 1870's the Army reduced the case capacity of the 45-70 by inserting a hollow cardboard cylinder into the case. Custer's boys had them at Greasy Grass for their carbines. They needed more help than that though.
